On my 1996 Ford Bronco lately, when I turn the steering wheel at least on revolution, not all the way. Then I hear a pop.
Anybody have a idea what is going on?

the thingy that cancels your turn signals might need to be adjusted?

I don't know they were replaced 30,000 miles ago

Sorry man, my 96 was doing the same thing, and it was the ball joints. It could be wheel bearings but I doubt it, sounds like a ball joint to me.

I assume you can get the noise in park or neutral as well..
If so (with the parking brake on..) climb under the truck and put your hand on the outer tie rod and feel or look for where the movement is, while someone turns the steering wheel. Also try to move the wheel from the top in and out to find the noise.
